Does your LG G4 haven't got a key press combination to go to bootloader menu ?
Oooh wait first hit on Google search.
How to Boot into Fastboot Mode on LG G4 with the help of its Hardware Buttons:
First of all, turn off the smartphone.
Then, press and hold the Power and Volume Up keys at the same time for about 6 or 7 seconds.
Plug in the USB cable for your smartphone and connect it to your PC.
Release the keys only when the download mode is being displayed.
Same problem here! Nog able to het Root acces.(su binary not installed), so says Supersu. Probally because cm and Supersu Have a conflict. So how to delete the 'System' Supersu app?

You have to use the clean up option in the app or remove the app manually through terminal or adb shell

How can I remove the app manually? When I open SuperSU, it won't let me open it because SuperSU says something like "cannot install SuperSU" and quits.

Hi,
I found it on web and i don't really remember from where i got it but its not my work so all credits to whom so ever it may be concerned.
##Please proceed at your own risk, i am note responsible for any damage to your device or any data loss.

Its a superuser flashable zip rooting file for Redmi Note 4g only.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8CWcCKLg4hraUZXMDVLc050TWM/view?usp=drivesdk
**To Root**
Please make a backup of your data before starting to root your device.
Recommended: Do not connect to any internet network such as wifi,gprs,3G/4G...
to avoid update searching issue till the process is over.
1)Download the above rooting .zip file from the above URL and save it into your internal/external SD Card(Recommend in your internal SD Card).
2) Now open Updater App of MIUI and open options.(3 dots in the right at the top)
3) Now choose the option "Choose Update Package". Now the file manager will get open.
4)Locate the .zip file that you downloaded in the file manager and click on it(For MIUI 8: After clicking on the file it gets selected and then click on ok).

6)Now open the app and a pop up will come to update su.Click on Ok and in that select Normal/CWM or TWRP as per the recovery you have installed on your device.
7) That's it now your device is successful rooted.
##Note: Its not a native root.
**To UNROOT**

It couldn't not help to fully unroot my device also if i needed to use super su it gave me problem.
If it's working for u then its well and good but if u like super su more then u can use the above method.

iT may cause your phone no reaction while connecting to The Pc if you use The latest supersu version on supersu official website. I prefer phh's superuser . I rooted my mido perfectly With it.
I tried the above method but I accidentally selected twrp method when su asked to update.
Now the phone stuck at MI boot loop screen I can only access to fast boot mode but can't enter recovery mode.
So any help ?
Is the file size 2.81 MB only?
Phone stuck/ Damaged
Im also having same problem.
After flashing Su, it asked for reboot. When i reboot, it is stuck in MI logo and not restarting. i observed this for more than 10 hrs. When i tried to start with recovery, again it is stuck is FASTBOOT screen and not progressing. My phone is not usable now. Please help

UPDATED AND EDITED
Hello everyone. I decided to edit my first post on this thread to make finding the instructions on how to Root & Install TWRP along with Magisk on the LG ARISTO or LV3 for T-Mobile/Metro PCS
WARNING:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE, DAMAGE IT, GET IT STUCK ON BOOTLOOP, MAKE YOUR DEVICE CAUSE A NUCLEAR EXPLOSIVE, OR HAVE IT CAUSE A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
But if you follow Messi's instructions down to a tee. You shouldn't have any problem
The stock boot image has dm-verity, which prevents you from booting if you swipe to enable system modifications after flashing twrp!
SOLUTION:
Flash a root such as SuperSU or Magisk V13.3 You should also flash no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip. (although I was informed you might not need to with Magisk, again try at your own risk)
Prerequisites :
Enable OEM Unlocking and usb debugging in developer options!
Go to settings
About Phone
Software Info
And press on Build Number about 9 times
You will see a pop up notifying you that you have unlocked Developer Options
Go Back and you should see the new settings option
Enter Developer Options
Enable it, select ok
Enable OEM unlock
And finally disable Automatic System Updates
UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER
(You must be familiar with Command Prompt on Windows)
• YOUR BOOTLOADER MUST BE UNLOCKED
- reboot into fastboot [ adb reboot bootloader ]
- fastboot oem unlock [ this is going to wipe your data ]
If you have problems with the device drivers installed , you will need to install lg bridge app from lg that contains the device driver
http://tool.lime.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=PWZO7A26B9UW
How to flash the recovery:
• BOOT INTO FASTBOOT MODE:
With your phone off, connect your usb cable to your phone while holding VOLUME DOWN to boot into fastboot mode or just type [adb reboot bootloader] in the adb terminal
• ONCE YOU ARE IN FASTBOOT MODE:
Open a command prompt and type "fastboot flash recovery <path_to_recovery.img>” without the quotation marks.
Example: fastboot flash recovery C:/Users/John/Desktop/recovery.img
[don't forget to extract the downloaded recovery zip to get the recovery.img]
• WHEN THE FLASH COMPLETES: (Takes about 2 seconds)
On your phone, unplug the usb cable and power it off by taking out the battery and putting it back in.
• BOOT INTO RECOVERY MODE FOR THE FIRST TIME
HOLD VOLUME DOWN + POWER until you see the LG logo and then temporarily release the POWER button, immediately pressing and holding it back down until you see the white prompt [factory reset] screen. You will NEVER release the volume down button in this process!
Use the hard keys to select "YES" and then "YES" again to boot into TWRP!
How to Disable encryption & flash super su
1. In TWRP, go to Wipe > Format Data. Enter the keyword ‘yes‘, in the provided space and enter. This will wipe the automatically encrypted filesystem, and decrypt it.
2. Once the wiping is done, reboot back into recovery. Go to Reboot > Recovery.
3. When the recovery boots again, connect your phone to the PC and Enable MTP under the Mount section.
4. Transfer the downloaded ‘no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip’ and ‘UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip or if you wants MAGISK then the MagiskV13.zip to your internal storage or EXTSD
5. Disconnect the device now.
6. Tap on Install. Now, navigate your phone’s storage and select ‘no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip’. Finally swipe the ‘Swipe to confirm Flash’ button on the bottom of the screen.
7. The flashing process will merely take a few seconds. And when it’s done, follow the same method to flash the root package – UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip or you can flash the MAGISKV13.zip
Wait 1 or 2 minutes after the zip files are done flashing then reboot system and PROFIT! Your phone may take 3-5 minutes to boot the first time and it might boot-loop once or twice at the Metro PCS splash screen but don’t worry this is expected.

Hello everyone. I'm no stranger to rooting and TWRP. Always looking for rooting methods for wtv device I own. I currently own an LG LV3 or Aristo running Nougat 7.0 and successfully rooted it via adb as well as installed a fully functional TWRP thanks to Messi's method.
Now when it comes to Xposed I'm no novice. But unfortunately there isn't a Nougat compatible one yet. So I'm going with the alternative Magisk. But I am a complete noob when it comes to Magisk.
Can I simply flash the Magisk zip and follow the steps mentioned on the Magisk forum? Also, will MagiskSU replace my current SU without any flaws?
Any help would be appreciated

Depends on what root solution you're currently using. If you're using systemless SuperSU Magisk won't replace it, but use that instead. In that case you'll have to first remove SuperSU. If you're using any other root Magisk will try to replace it with MagiskSU (no guarantees). Also, I believe LG devices need a "bump" script, or something like that... I also believe this has been added to the Magisk code, but is not yet in the official release. If v11.1 doesn't work, you could try the unofficial beta snapshot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/unofficial-magisk-v10-beta-built-t3521901
And just to clarify: Magisk is not an alternative to Xposed... You can do certain things with Magisk that can also be done with Xposed, but they work in completely different ways. Think of Magisk as a "file injector" where it can replace files and props on your device at boot, completely systemless. And along the same kind of thinking Xposed is a "code injector" that can alter the code of a running app. This can also be made systemless, by tools such as Magisk. @topjohnwu have hinted at ideas about making Magisk work as a "code injector", but this is purely on the idea stage at the moment and is probably quite far away in a possible future.
Take a look in the release thread and the Magisk All-In-One Wiki (both stickied at the top). They contain a lot of useful information. There's also a lot of information in the support thread, which is pretty big by now so the search function is a good tool there.
I've also collected a bunch of tips and tricks for Magisk installation and troubleshooting, and as well for Magisk Hide if you want to use that:

I almost did but I got stuck on bootloop. The only way I can think it might work would be to return to stock. Follow Messi's method for Twrp & Root. But at the point of root. U can stick with Chainfires SuperSU, or use the latest MagiskSU by Topjohnwu (would recommend)
Then just reboot the device and follow TopJohnwus method of installing Magisk.
But don't take my word for it. It's just and idea. I've yet to try it Cuz I haven't really had time. So it's up to you if u wanna give it a shot.
Or u can wait for me to try it. I was thinking of doing it 2nite. It's 930pm pst
I say around 11-12 I will be giving it another go. Wtv my results are. I will report back. Wish me luck
SUCCESS
I got Magisk to work on My LG Aristo as of today. It was just as I thought.
I went back to stock. Then I followed Messi's method to get TWRP installed. Since I already had my bootloader unlocked. I didnt need to worry about it. Just flashed TWRP via adb as Messi says to do. Unplugged my device and pulled out the battery to turn of my device. Put it back in and rebooted into recovery. Went to wipe and formatted data. Once it was done. Went back and went into Reboot. Rebootted back into recovery. Plugged my phone to my laptop, enabled mtp and transferred both the no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip file and magiskzip file. Didn't need SuperSu seeing as how Magisk alone roots the device. Flashed the no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip first and then Magiskzip. Latest version is V13.2 right now. It automatically installs Magisk Manager since it isn't available on the Play Store anymore. Rebooted system. Waited for my phone to start. Set it up and immediately tested it. And Magisk is 100% fully functional with all green checkmarks. Hope it helps. Maybe I should create a thread. Would be my first one. Don't really know how to tho. But I'll try.
Also, here are the snapshots of proof and my magisk settings to get them to pass.

Use the full uninstall provided within the supersu app and restart your phone, then go into recovery and flash magisk.

Hi Ortem1UP, I get the jist of the method but not sure what the dm-verity parts are. Can you explain what this is for, and where are you getting it and what version? Is dm-verity the same as no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip that messi describes in his twrp tutorial for the Aristo?

Oh wow. So sorry. I hadn't noticed my mistake. Yes, the dm verity I accidentally mentioned is actually the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip that Messi mentions. I'll fix that mistake. Wouldn't want ppl to get confused. Thanks for that. BTW, the same method also works with the new Magisk V13.2. Just an FYI

Ortem, while I was waiting for your reply, I went ahead and flashed the magisk zip (13.2) without flashing no-verity and I was able to get it to work. I have all green checks as well with SafetyNet. So the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip file may not be needed for magisk to work and to get root/safetynet pass

No way. Seriously? Does SafetyNet always pass? Because for me it does at times and other times it doesn't. I wonder if the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip is to blame? I shall try it your way and see how that goes. Thanks for the heads up. Guess the zip is only needed for SuperSu. Not Magisk.

Yeah I'm actually passing SafetyNet sometimes as well and sometimes not. I can't figure out why that's the case. In any case, I don't think the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip is to blame given since we're both experiencing the same symptoms!

Oh OK. For a second I thought it was the zip file.
Anywho. IDK about you but ever since the latest update. I haven't had a single problem with Safety Net. It passes every time now. I hope your getting the same results?

In the "first boot" after TWRP flash process. While holding power button+vol. Down . You must let go of the volume button to make the selection "yes" then "power" to select then hold "VOL DOWN" the next option comes up. Let go press "VOL DOWN" to select "YES" still holding down push "POWER" to make final selection along with DOWN and again proceed as you would when you first went into recovery. Now this in no way a insult to the work that's put into this but I believe in order to teach those that want to learn we must combine our knowledge and create an amazing Rom:victory:
How to root any version of the OnePlus 7T Pro!
1. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked!
2. Once you're unlocked enter the following ADB commands to extract your current boot image (Your phone needs to be on)
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_a of=/boot_a.img
adb pull /boot_a.img pathinyourpc
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Download & install Magisk Manager on your phone
4. Put the boot_a.img file on your phone
5. Open the magisk manager app and click the "Advanced Settings" button, then enable "Prserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity & Preserve force encryption", then select the top "Install" button and select "Patch to boot image" and select the boot_a.img
6. Now magisk will create a magisk patched boot image file, put that on your computer
7. Now enter the following ADB command
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot --set-active=a
fastboot boot pathtomagiskpatched.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
8. Now you'll boot into the system, reopen the magisk app and click the top install button again and select "Direct install", then reboot
Congratulations you've now successfully rooted your phone!
EDIT: This guide is wrong.
Check these references for the proper guide to root. OP refuses to acknowledge it's wrong even when I pointed it out to him with proof.

Now I have something so do for the weekend, thanks
Just a question, have you tried Viper4Android (if your use it)?: Use 2.7.1.6 stable version.
hi,
tryed it out.. When i boot your patched image.. there is no install button in magisk. It tolds me that i am already on the newest version.
Second.. WLAN isnt working any more. Cant enable wlan. When i reboot with stock img. everything is fine.

Yes it says its installed thats correct but you need to install it again in the magisk app so it stays after restarting the phone. I don't know about WLAN tho
Can you turn on Wifi ?
When i turn it on. It is disabled at the end.
There are similar problems in the 7t forums. Seems a problem with the used magisk version for the boot image.. did you use the canary magisk files ?
and yes.. I know why i need to install. But the linked version of magisk says only.. uninstall..
Edit: i have a european version of the oneplus 7t pro .. and can you provide the original boot image.
I can confirm I have successfully rooted using this method, and WIFI is working fine. Thank you very much, OP and everyone involved, no wits time to set up my device
Ah! Will do this immediately when I get home.
I tried magisk and now it loops to fastboot, does anyone know to recover from this? Does the msm tool for OP7T Pro?
edit: flashed the original boot img and boots fine, whever i try to boot magisk patched it bootlops because faulty drivers
to clear up, i tried installing viper4android driver directly from the app, so i guess theres residue left

did you install modules ? try booting the patched boot image from here and then, uninstall the modules again...
Works like a charm!
Minor thing you may want to clarify (I know you know, but to prevent confusion for readers), you give a warning that this will wipe all data, but that is not exactly true. Unlocking the bootloader wipes all data, but that step is not part of your instructions. Just following your steps on an already unlocked phone does not wipe the phone.
Thanks to everyone who made this possible so soon!

I also bootlooped as well, I tried to install liveboot and i guess that didnt work lol
anyways, I fixed my bootloop by booting the unpatched boot img and then doing a factory reset in the settings, after that you can just boot to the magisk boot img again!

I'm not sure where the misunderstanding is coming from, I know that you give that warning. What I mean is that strictly speaking following your steps does not wipe the phone, unlocking the bootloader wipes the phone. But you don't have that step in your instructions. See what I mean? .
When I read your steps, I was like "wipes my phone how?" Maybe booting your image would wipe my phone or something? I'm glad it didn't .
I just thought for clarity's sake it would be good to make that clear in the steps that's all!

Great, I'll check back in on this tomorrow and see how everyone is getting on before I try. Had a skim through here this morning before mine arrived and didn't see anything so set up as is.
I used this to install lineage and it worked out great – the tablet runs a lot better. But I have an app I'd like to use that requires root, and this unofficial version of lineage does not come with a boot.img to patch with magisk. Is there some other way to root this that I'm missing, or is it not possible?

If you originally patched the Samsung firmware and rooted under OneUI, that same version of Magisk will show up once you flash any GSIs.
Besides that, there's no other way that I know of since you can't simply sideload Magisk through TWRP for this device
You'll have to start over by patching the firmware and flashing through Odin to get back to stock. From there, set up Magisk like you'd normally do. Once that's done, you can proceed and use the same guide to get LOS back and be fully rooted with Magisk

You just need to install the magisk apk and run it. There is no need to patch anything.

Simply installing the Magisk APK is not the same. To install Magisk completely to your system you must patch the image.
For this device, you need to complete the patching process first with Samsung's firmware under OneUI. Once that's done, you can return back to LOS and a patched version of Magisk will be waiting for you to install

Yes, but with stock, your only option is to patch a file. But with LOS you also have the option to install direct. Choose that and it will root.

I didn't root initially when installing LOS. So it appears I need to restart the process, which isn't that big of a deal. But I don't know how to get back to stock to perform the patch. It's been almost a year since I originally installed LOS so I'm a little rusty with how everything works again

Again!!!! There is no need for that. LOS has replaced stock. Just do as I said, run Magisk but instead of choosing a file, choose the DIRECT install option. LOS doesn't need to be patched and stock didn't need to be rooted before flashing LOS. I just happened that I did root stock first but that was just to test if it worked with the latest stock ROM. But there is no need to do it if you are going to flash a GSI.

If you are only seeing "Select a file", something is wrong but it has nothing to do with needing to patch. Try uninstalling magisk and then flashing the apk with TWRP.

So long as you know where it is, you should be able to browse to it. You might have to "Select storage" to switch between Internal and Micro SD. If it doesn't show, try renaming it from .apk to .zip.

Not necessarily so. I've installed apk files in TWRP many times. It depends upon the version of TWRP. Some will, some won't. Most later versions will. I have v 3.7.0_12.2 on mine and it installs the apk just fine.
